Entrepreneurship 101
This summer I helped my daughter London, and her cousin Raio learn a few basics about starting a business. We had FOUR lemons in the house, so decided to turn lemons ... into cash. How?
(Pre) Sales:
🍋 Have a vision
🍋 Find motivation
🍋 Get in action (preferably with a friend, or team)
🍋 Create a QUALITY product (in this case, FRESH / organic lemonade)
🍋 Whenever possible, use materials you already own
💛 Always make it with LOVE 💛
(During) Sales:
🍋 Find a good location
🍋 Work on marketing (they made signs)
🍋 Present a friendly attitude to customers
🍋 Ensure a smooth experience
🍋 Have a way to collect money (we used Venmo)
Then, London and Raio SOLD to pedestrians passing by the house!
- 3 cups for $6, within the first 15 minutes
- Then, 1 cup (for $10!) within the next 15 minutes
(Post) Sales:
🍋 Get feedback & make observations for improvement
🍋 Decide what to do with the money ...
1. Spend it? 🤔
2. Save it? 🤔
3. Donate it? 🤔
4. Invest it? 🤔

They decided to RE-invest in a "new product line" ... COOKIES!
